Lotus Elise Cup 250 Specs and Details

There have been many different versions of the Elise over the years, but with this last one Lotus claims they have made the best one yet. That has to do with the British company’s obsession with light weight, since this new Lotus Elise Cup 250 tips the scale at just 884 kg.

And if you think that is remarkable wait until you hear about the lightweight options they offer, bringing that weight down to 864 kg. Given that Lotus Elise Cup 250 packs 243 horsepower that means the sports car has a power to weight ratio of 283 hp per tonne, which is how it achieves its 0 to 60 mph time of 3.9 seconds. Better than the straight line performance, though, is the way this thing corners, which is like a fly!
